Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 heads endive
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Juice of 1 lemon
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
16 sea scallops
2 tablespoons flat-leaf parsley, chopped

Steps:

  • Cut the endives in half, remove their tough inner cores and slice the endive leaves into slivers.
  • Melt butter and 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet and cook the endive over medium heat until tender and the liquid has evaporated (about 8 minutes). Remove the pan from the heat, stir in 2 tablespoons lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Keep warm.
  • Season the scallops with salt and pepper. Heat the remaining olive oil in a large skillet and sauté the scallops in two batches over high heat until they are lightly browned on both sides.
  • Divide the endive among four plates. Put the scallops on top, sprinkle them with lemon juice and parsley and serve.

I'm allergic to scallops, but I made this dish for my husband and he loved it. He said it was one of the best things I've ever made.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover scallops. I had some leftover from a seafood boil and they were perfect in this recipe.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my scallops turned out rubbery. I think I overcooked them.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste. I would have liked more vegetables to balance out the fattiness of the scallops.

This was my first time cooking scallops and they turned out amazing! The lemon and garlic butter sauce was so flavorful and the endive added a nice crunch. Definitely a keeper!

I've made this dish several times now and it never disappoints. The scallops are always cooked perfectly and the endive is a great way to add some bitterness to balance out the sweetness of the scallops.

This dish was a delightful surprise! The combination of endive, lemon, and scallops was simply divine. I especially appreciated the hint of garlic and white wine in the sauce. It really brought all the flavors together.
